# Webpack Assets Manifest
[](https://github.com/webdeveric/webpack-assets-manifest/actions/workflows/node.js.yml) [](https://codecov.io/gh/webdeveric/webpack-assets-manifest)
This webpack plugin will generate a JSON file that matches the original filename with the hashed version.
## Installation
```shell
pnpm add -D webpack-assets-manifest
```
```shell
npm install webpack-assets-manifest -D
```
```shell
yarn add webpack-assets-manifest -D
```
## New in version 6
- This plugin is now written with TypeScript.
- TypeScript types are provided by this package.
- The package exports `esm` and `cjs`.
- Added `manifest.utils` for use in the `customize` hook.
- See [examples/customized.js](https://github.com/webdeveric/webpack-assets-manifest/blob/master/examples/customized.js)
- https://github.com/webdeveric/webpack-assets-manifest/blob/b6ed8c09394bf33c8fadd5adff8bad7694f295ba/src/plugin.ts#L185-L195
### Breaking changes
- Bumped minimum webpack version to `5.61`
- Bumped minimum Node version to `20.10`
- The plugin is exported using a named export instead of default.
- Use `import { WebpackAssetsManifest } from 'webpack-assets-manifest';`
## New in version 5
- Compatible with webpack 5 only (5.1+ required).
- Supports finding [asset modules](https://webpack.js.org/guides/asset-modules/).
- Updated options schema to prevent additional properties. This helps with catching typos in option names.
- :warning: Updated default value of the `output` option to be `assets-manifest.json`. This is to prevent confusion when working with [Web app manifests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Manifest) or [WebExtension manifests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json).
## New in version 4
- Requires Node 10+.
- Compatible with webpack 4 only (4.40+ required).
- Added options: [`enabled`](#enabled), [`entrypointsUseAssets`](#entrypointsUseAssets), [`contextRelativeKeys`](#contextRelativeKeys).
- Updated [`writeToDisk`](#writeToDisk) option to default to `auto`.
- Use lock files for various operations.
- `done` hook is now an `AsyncSeriesHook`.
- :warning: The structure of the `entrypoints` data has been updated to include `preload` and `prefetch` assets. Assets for an entrypoint are now included in an `assets` property under the entrypoint.
Example:
```json
{
"entrypoints": {
"main": {
"assets": {
"css": ["main.css"],
"js": ["main.js"]
},
"prefetch": {
"js": ["prefetch.js"]
},
"preload": {
"js": ["preload.js"]
}
}
}
}
```
## Usage
In your webpack config, require the plugin then add an instance to the `plugins` array.
```js
import { WebpackAssetsManifest } from 'webpack-assets-manifest';
export default {
entry: {
// Your entry points
},
output: {
// Your output details
},
module: {
// Your loader rules go here.
},
plugins: [
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
// Options go here
}),
],
};
```
## Sample output
```json
{
"main.js": "main-9c68d5e8de1b810a80e4.js",
"main.css": "main-9c68d5e8de1b810a80e4.css",
"images/logo.svg": "images/logo-b111da4f34cefce092b965ebc1078ee3.svg"
}
```

## Options ([read the schema](src/options-schema.ts))
### `enabled`
Type: `boolean`
Default: `true`
Is the plugin enabled?
### `output`
Type: `string`
Default: `assets-manifest.json`
This is where to save the manifest file relative to your webpack `output.path`.
### `assets`
Type: `object`
Default: `{}`
Data is stored in this object.
#### Sharing data
You can share data between instances by passing in your own object in the `assets` option.
This is useful in [multi-compiler mode](https://github.com/webpack/webpack/tree/master/examples/multi-compiler).
```js
const data = Object.create(null);
const manifest1 = new WebpackAssetsManifest({
assets: data,
});
const manifest2 = new WebpackAssetsManifest({
assets: data,
});
```
### `contextRelativeKeys`
Type: `boolean`
Default: `false`
Keys are relative to the compiler context.
### `space`
Type: `int`
Default: `2`
Number of spaces to use for pretty printing.
### `replacer`
Type: `null`, `function`, or `array`
Default: `null`
[Replacer reference](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify#The_replacer_parameter)
You'll probably want to use the `transform` hook instead.
### `fileExtRegex`
Type: `regex`
Default: `/\.\w{2,4}\.(?:map|gz)$|\.\w+$/i`
This is the regular expression used to find file extensions. You'll probably never need to change this.
### `writeToDisk`
Type: `boolean`, `string`
Default: `'auto'`
Write the manifest to disk using `fs`.
:warning: If you're using another language for your site and you're using `webpack-dev-server` to process your assets during development, you should set `writeToDisk: true` and provide an absolute path in `output` so the manifest file is actually written to disk and not kept only in memory.
### `sortManifest`
Type: `boolean`, `function`
Default: `true`
The manifest is sorted alphabetically by default. You can turn off sorting by setting `sortManifest: false`.
If you want more control over how the manifest is sorted, you can provide your own [comparison function](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/sort#Parameters). See the [sorted](examples/sorted.js) example.
```js
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
sortManifest(left, right) {
// Return -1, 0, or 1
},
});
```
### `merge`
Type: `boolean`, `string`
Default: `false`
If the `output` file already exists and you'd like to add to it, use `merge: true`. The default behavior is to use the existing keys/values without modification.
```js
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
output: '/path/to/manifest.json',
merge: true,
});
```
If you need to customize during merge, use `merge: 'customize'`.
If you want to know if `customize` was called when merging with an existing manifest, you can check `manifest.isMerging`.
```js
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
merge: 'customize',
customize(entry, original, manifest, asset) {
if ( manifest.isMerging ) {
// Do something
}
},
}),
```
### `publicPath`
Type: `string`, `function`, `boolean`,
Default: `null`
When using `publicPath: true`, your webpack config `output.publicPath` will be used as the value prefix.
```js
const manifest = new WebpackAssetsManifest({
publicPath: true,
});
```
When using a string, it will be the value prefix. One common use is to prefix your CDN URL.
```js
const manifest = new WebpackAssetsManifest({
publicPath: 'https://cdn.example.com',
});
```
If you'd like to have more control, use a function. See the [custom CDN](examples/custom-cdn.js) example.
```js
const manifest = new WebpackAssetsManifest({
publicPath(filename, manifest) {
// customize filename here
return filename;
},
});
```
### `entrypoints`
Type: `boolean`
Default: `false`
Include `compilation.entrypoints` in the manifest file.
### `entrypointsKey`
Type: `string`, `boolean`
Default: `entrypoints`
If this is set to `false`, the `entrypoints` will be added to the root of the manifest.
### `entrypointsUseAssets`
Type: `boolean`
Default: `false`
Entrypoint data should use the value from `assets`, which means the values could be customized and not just a `string` file path. This new option defaults to `false` so the new behavior is opt-in.
### `integrity`
Type: `boolean`
Default: `false`
Include the [subresource integrity hash](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity).
### `integrityHashes`
Type: `array`
Default: `[ 'sha256', 'sha384', 'sha512' ]`
Hash algorithms to use when generating SRI. For browsers, the currently the allowed integrity hashes are `sha256`, `sha384`, and `sha512`.
Other hash algorithms can be used if your target environment is not a browser. If you were to create a tool to audit your S3 buckets for [data integrity](https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/data-integrity-s3/), you could use something like this [example](examples/aws-s3-data-integrity.js) to record the `md5` hashes.
### `integrityPropertyName`
Type: `string`
Default: `integrity`
This is the property that will be set on each entry in `compilation.assets`, which will then be available during `customize`. It is customizable so that you can have multiple instances of this plugin and not have them overwrite the `currentAsset.integrity` property.
You'll probably only need to change this if you're using multiple instances of this plugin to create different manifests.
### `apply`
Type: `function`
Default: `null`
Callback to run after setup is complete.
### `customize`
Type: `function`
Default: `null`
Callback to customize each entry in the manifest.
You can use this to customize entry names for example. In the sample below, we adjust `img` keys so that it's easier to use them with a template engine:
```javascript
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
customize(entry, original, manifest, asset) {
if (manifest.utils.isKeyValuePair(entry) && entry.key.startsWith('img/')) {
return { key: entry.key.split('img/')[1], value: entry.value };
}
return entry;
}
}
```
The function is called per each entry and provides you a way to intercept and rewrite each object. The result is then merged into a whole manifest.
[View the example](examples/customized.js) to see what else you can do with this function.
### `transform`
Type: `function`
Default: `null`
Callback to transform the entire manifest.
### `done`
Type: `function`
Default: `null`
Callback to run after the compilation is done and the manifest has been written.
---
### Hooks
This plugin is using hooks from [Tapable](https://github.com/webpack/tapable/).
The `apply`, `customize`, `transform`, and `done` options are automatically tapped into the appropriate hook.
| Name | Type | Callback signature |
| -------------- | ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| `apply` | `SyncHook` | `function(manifest){}` |
| `customize` | `SyncWaterfallHook` | `function(entry, original, manifest, asset){}` |
| `transform` | `SyncWaterfallHook` | `function(assets, manifest){}` |
| `done` | `AsyncSeriesHook` | `async function(manifest, stats){}` |
| `options` | `SyncWaterfallHook` | `function(options){}` |
| `afterOptions` | `SyncHook` | `function(options){}` |
#### Tapping into hooks
Tap into a hook by calling the `tap` method on the hook as shown below.
If you want more control over exactly what gets added to your manifest, then use the `customize` and `transform` hooks. See the [customized](examples/customized.js) and [transformed](examples/transformed.js) examples.
```js
const manifest = new WebpackAssetsManifest();
manifest.hooks.apply.tap('YourPluginName', function (manifest) {
// Do something here
manifest.set('some-key', 'some-value');
});
manifest.hooks.customize.tap('YourPluginName', function (entry, original, manifest, asset) {
// customize entry here
return entry;
});
manifest.hooks.transform.tap('YourPluginName', function (assets, manifest) {
// customize assets here
return assets;
});
manifest.hooks.options.tap('YourPluginName', function (options) {
// customize options here
return options;
});
manifest.hooks.done.tap('YourPluginName', function (manifest, stats) {
console.log(`The manifest has been written to ${manifest.getOutputPath()}`);
console.log(`${manifest}`);
});
manifest.hooks.done.tapPromise('YourPluginName', async (manifest, stats) => {
await yourAsyncOperation();
});
```
These hooks can also be set by passing them in the constructor options.
```js
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
done(manifest, stats) {
console.log(`The manifest has been written to ${manifest.getOutputPath()}`);
console.log(`${manifest}`);
},
});
```
## Manifest methods
If the manifest instance is passed to a hook, you can use the following methods to manage what goes into the manifest.
- `has(key)`
- `get(key)`
- `set(key, value)`
- `setRaw(key, value)`
- `delete(key)`
If you want to write the manifest to another location, you can use `writeTo(destination)`.
```js
new WebpackAssetsManifest({
async done(manifest) {
await manifest.writeTo('/some/other/path/assets-manifest.json');
},
});
```
